Michael Stickrod: Sept 13








Exhibition Walk-Through with Michael Stickrod
(Altoids Award Winner )
New Museum, 235 Bowery
Saturday, Sep 13, 2008, 2:00 PM

Michael Stickrod addresses the psychology of human ties by cutting to the center of his familial circle. He uses scanned photographs and found audio to create nearly abstract sequences embedded between incising confessions and footage of his family. The videos on view take his mother and father as his subject matter, painting a landscape of Middle America that oscillates between bleak and hopeful. Stickrod was born in 1978 in Columbus, Ohio, and currently lives and works in New Haven, Connecticut. On September 13 he will discuss his work in the Altoids Award exhibition.
